Re: POLL: 73 Percent of Voters Want Trump to Succeed as President

Very few want him to build a wall on the Mexican Border, deport 11 million people, cut taxes for the Uberich, start a trade war with China, restart the Nuclear Arms Race, end environmental protection and workplace safety regulations, abolish the minimum wage or start a war with Iran.

And yet those are the only things he's mentioned that he thinks will make things better.

Re: POLL: 73 Percent of Voters Want Trump to Succeed as President

I wanted Trump to win yes I am republican, also a Federal employee who has to work in a job doing more with less support. I am ready for new person in office glad it is Trump. A new view in the Presidents office.

Like a lot of Feds, you make the erroueous assumption that Republicans will look out for your interests. For 2016, President Obama proposed a 1.6% pay raise for federal workers, Republicans passed a budget with NO RAISE.

The biggest federal pay hike in history was when Jimmy Carter actually accepted the OMB recommendation and Fed pay was brought in line with the rest of the national workforce with a 14.2% increase for 1980.

Since then federal pay lagged behind the private sector for a decade, with the slide slowing when Warhero Bush (and a Democratic Congress) passed the Federal Employee Pay Comparability Act which established locality pay.

But the BIG problem is Reagan. Ronny killed Revenue Sharing to try and pay for his excessive tax giveaway to the Uberrich, and as a result Congresscritters want PRIVATE sector jobs that provide a much bigger tax revenue locally than the Feds do (also the business with private sector jobs can make political contributions while the Fed installation cannot). The result has been nearly 40 years of Privatization under rules the Congress keeps tilting in favor of the private sector.

THAT my friend is why you keep having to do more with less and don't even get a raise for doing it, and it is the GOP that is the driving force behind privatization and restrictions on Government pay.

What do you think GOPers mean when they call for "smaller Government"? MORE people in your office earning BIGGER checks?

Re: POLL: 73 Percent of Voters Want Trump to Succeed as President

I agree. I hope he succeeds. I just hope he quits acting like the **bleep** sphinkter he has for the past 50+ years. There's no reason to continue to be an egotistical jerk.

If this poll is accurate, it just shows how bi-partsian and objective Democrats and Independents are. They aren't taking the same position narrow-minded Conservatives did when the honorable and trustworthy black man took office.

You evidently are looking for employment other than the government because Trump will show you the door out. If you think you had problems in the past? Just wait a while because your problems are about to get worse
